#GONELONGENOUGH

Please support--and promote--#GONELONGENOUGH on all your social media.
#GONELONGENOUGH stands for a number of criminal justice and prison reform issues, including:
1. Lowering all federal (and state, if applicable) sentences to 65% of time served;
2. Abolishing mandatory minimums;
3. Fair sentencing based on actual harm caused to the community (i.e., a murderer or even a drug dealer cause more actual harm to the community than many prisoners with victim-less crimes who are serving much higher sentences and post-release restrictions. No sentence or restriction should be higher than for those criminals who cause actual harm);
4. Criminal justice and prison reform, in general. We've made the First Step. Without a Second Step, there is no real progress being made in criminal justice reform. Let's move forward together in criminal justice and prison reform. Make #GONELONGENOUGH that Second Step.
Thank you.
